I have 5 10lb extinguishers, 2 4 lb extinguishers in my house, started with just a 10lb in the garage and the 4lb in basement. 2 years back on July 1st (it was a very dry year) the field behind our place goes up in flame due to a neighbor playing with fireworks. While waiting for the fire department to respond, a person 3 houses down says his garage and carport are on fire. I run and grab the 10lb and start jumping the fences in the backyards. About the time I get there another neighbor having the little 1lb kitchen unit shows up. He jumps around the corner and sprays, for what seemed like 4 seconds and says, I'm out. I jump back there and go to town with the larger unit. I stop the flames from growing due to the field still burning I know it is only time. We are back there about 2 more minutes when it ignites again, I spray a little more and put it out, then a minute longer it goes up again, my extinguisher is now out. I just turned to run to go back to get the 4lb unit when I am hit by a wall of water. The fire department came thru the field to get to the houses. If ever in doubt what size extinusher you need. Go bigger. After that is when I bout the 4 larger 10lb units. And had the original refilled.

Fast forward to now. I wanted a extinguisher for my offroad rig. After measuring what I can fit where, I opted for this 4lb unit. I will get a 2.5lb unit to go under the front seat as well, but again, this is one of those circumstances where bigger really is better. I used some steel stock to mock up a bracket mount, used the USCG approved bottle mount found here on Amazon and grade 8 hardware everywhere. I am fairly certain there is no way this is coming off even in a accident (should be a major concern to us with pressurized steel bottles in our trucks), even if it did come off, it would have to work its way out from under the rack, then thru the 1" cargo netting. I feel the passengers are safe. The handle is blocked by the rack support beams so nothing can accidentally fall on and break the top off. The valve assy is all metal so it is very stout as well, perfect for my use, and like everyone hopes, I hope I never need to use it.

I bought this as soon as my husband started making noises about wanting to deep fry a turkey for Thanksgiving. He is very enthusiastic about fire related things, but is not always properly cautious about such things. I was a scout. He was not. Thanksgiving passed without incident, but tonight, he decided to surprise me with a nice fire in our firepit. We live in Oklahoma, so it is always windy. The grass is dead, and we still have brush down from the ice storm we had in November. We have no hoses in the backyard. By the time I figured out what he was doing, the yard was aflame. I busted out this bad boy and had a 5' diameter fire out in two minutes. Highly recommend.

After cooking a grill filled with chicken, we shut off the gas and noticed the fire was growing larger. After another minute we were at the point of a raging inferno quickly getting out of control. Essentially we had a grease fire from the chicken dropping down in the grill. I went and grabbed this extinguisher and quickly was able to put out the fire. It actually only used about a third of the tank and that was overkill to put it out. I am very very thankful that we had this extinguisher nearby. We had it for about 7 years and it was still charged and worked wonderfully.

My husband and I are new home owners. We've never purchased a fire extinguisher. Luckily, the former owners left one in our kitchen cabinet. At the time it was our single and only extinguisher, and who knows how old it was.

Anyways, my husband was grilling on our old wooden, dry deck and I guess he hadn't cleaned the grease out in a while. He opened the lid and the flames got so tall the siding behind the grill caught fire. Luckily he remembered the old owners left this, and luckily it still worked. We had a wimpy baking soda pack that deodorizes the fridge, hardly something that would have put the side of the house out.

Needless to say, we purchased a number of these. One for every floor and one for the garage.

Please remind the new homeowners you know to keep these in their homes. This is just something we never thought about and were prepared this time by luck.

Not had to use it yet and hope i don't have to. Came in perfect condition, the pin and handle/lever look and feel sturdy and are NOT made of cheap plastic parts. It came perfectly pressurised (gauge needle exactly centrered in the green section on the gauge). The mounting bracket is sturdy and the extinguisher can be removed from it easily with 2 hands. Highly recommended, I am planning on buying at least 3 more.

I hope I never need to use this extinguisher, but it is nice to know I'm ready for most common types of fires. I live in a rather rural area so the first and immediate response is very important. I feel safer knowing I have a reliable-brand, multi-fire extinguisher around! I bought two of these units. One for downstairs by my wood stove and the other for the second floor. These units are small enough to be "out of the way" when stored, yet pack a nice little punch for emergencies!
